It’s not too bad, It’s the best the will get with THQ so far
I checked the Demo the striking is more smooth than the last.

Models are fine

It’s the shaders and rendering that’s making them look wonky

wish they’d put more time and effort into ramping up their rendering ala Fight Night and such

Hells to the yes I’m getting it. Pre-ordering at Gamestop to get their “contender’s pack” with Diaz, Davis, Stann, and Mayhem. The demo is great. I hated UFC 2010 and loved the first undisputed. I also loved Ea Sports MMA, though I was very surprised since I thought it was going to be garbage, I think the new Undisputed combines the best parts of EA’s game with their own new tweaks and upgrades. I’m just hoping that the Career Mode is actually good and getting an overhaul. The Pride Mode will no doubt be awesome. Can’t wait to play some Grand prix’s!!!!

Wait… Matt Serra is in the game? I thought he doesn’t fight anymore, or is he just on a long hiatus?

considering that I purchased UFC 2 for $60 on the first day

and you can buy it 6 months later for half the price.

I’m going to wait 6 months to buy this one.

by djfivenine on Feb 7, 2012 3:28 PM EST reply actions  

I will be picking it up. If I’m not impressed, it may be my last Undisputed game. I loved 09. So much. I think I had 2000-3000 matches online. Then ‘10 was such a disappointment to me. They went for a more “fluid” style and it just felt off to me. If it isn’t improved enough in 3, I may be done. We’ll see what happens.

I’ll start off playing Career Mode for quite awhile, but once I start playing online send me and invite. XBL GT: inTIMidation31. A couple people have already sent me requests but I haven’t been on XBL in quite awhile.

I am, for sure.

Just for the simulation mode. I can’t get enough of beating up Rampage with Silva in pride mode. When I land a nice punch combo and end it with a flush head kick that rocks him, it feels awesome.

by I_Mad on Feb 7, 2012 6:01 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

planning on picking it up next Tuesday when it drops.

Can’t wait to rip off limbs with Palhares and knock out some IQ points with Carwin. Interested in playing with PRIDE, too.

by El_Ee_Oh on Feb 7, 2012 7:05 PM EST via Android app reply actions  

I was planning on getting it day one. But I have sadly cancelled my pre-order after seeing the new submission system. It’s totally distracting and unsatisying to have a HUD based mini-game pop up. Not to mention inauthentic. They should use the new sub system but minus the HUD. Have controller vibration and camera angle/zoom show how deep the sub is and who is winning the fight for the sub

by StJustice on Feb 7, 2012 8:46 PM EST reply actions  

If you haven’t actually tried the new sub system, I’d at least give it a shot. It’s not “authentic” by any means, but I don’t think it’s that bad. And it’s much better than 2010’s shining.

I did try it on the demo and it bummed me out. i think the rest of the game looks good but HUD based mini games are just a bad idea. Maybe I can get over my disapointment.

by StJustice on Feb 7, 2012 10:28 PM EST up reply actions  

Oh cool, at least you gave it a chance

I don’t mind it too much, tho I think it has it’s own problems. Overall the gameplay is much improved from the last edition and I think it’ll be a lot of fun.

I love it

It’s the part of the game that reminds me the most of training. The interplay of levers and counterweights is more complex than ring-around-the-rosey, but the run/chase and deceit of it feel more like grappling than button mashing does striking. I’d prefer a game that was nearly all about balancing, manipulating, and utilizing a series of those abstract representations and letting the character models reflect the natural consequences of foot placement or weight distribution and whatnot. There’s an awesome judo game waiting to be made all about hips and footwork as soon as someone both good at making videogames and into combat sports is up for it.

I'll be picking it up

I’m kinda doubtful on how much I’ll enjoy the game. I’m mostly going to play because I’m in two leagues with friends. I was in an ea mma league and it made the game a lot more enjoyable, so I’m giving this one a try.

You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.

by Tats16 on Feb 7, 2012 9:23 PM EST reply actions  

Check out the demo

It is a lot better than 10.

I’ll be picking it up and I’ll be ready to challenge you on the 14th :)

Im getting it, but the fucking contenders pack, expansion pack, johsnson pack international , rondaarousesme packs for 5 bucks each are pissing me off. JUST GIVE US THE FIGHTERS THQ

God help me, I lusted, and there is a promise in such sweat. But it is a whore's vengeance, and you must see it; I set myself entirely in your hands. I know you must see it now.

ea needs zuffa licensing

it would b great ea has tons of experience with combat games. I find myself playing ea mma more than the undisputed games. The control of the various strikes is a winning point for me. THQ is good but i think zuffa should def try to go with ea just to see the type of product they would make with the right budget. Demo was fun though….

by jaydog on Feb 8, 2012 1:15 AM EST reply actions  

Not to mention, EA made the mistake of getting on Dana’s shit list.

On top of that, of the two teams that have done combat sports games for EA (EA Canada and Tiburon) only EA Canada really makes games that are downright incredible.

Tiburon hasn’t made an inspired game in over ten years.

Will get it

Don’t understand all the hate towards 2010. You could be surprisingly creative in that game with regards to striking. Bit worried about this one as there doesn’t seem to be as many different kinds of strikes available for each guy.

by thelastsultan on Feb 8, 2012 1:15 AM EST reply actions  

no hate here

just curious to c how ea would implement new mechanics in only their second try at a mma game. Especially with the funding provided by zuffa. 2010 was great, however besides some borrowed tricks from ea mma, undisputed 3 will probably play very similarly to its previous renditions.

by jaydog on Feb 8, 2012 1:20 AM EST up reply actions  

2010 had an incredible learning curve toward it

You had to be very very good at defending the clinch and oppressive ground game to be able to have fun. At my best I was pretty good at the game and could still be controlled by the best exploiters. I can definitely see how a lot of those tactics could be extremely frustating to people just picking up the game.
